David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 14/12/2024If you can't even spell maggot, I'm not going to take you seriously. 110
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 13/12/2024It's so inane to advocate violence in pursuit of your policy preferences but then get outraged when those with whom you disagree use or condone violence. Not really complicated. 230
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 11/12/2024It took you so many paragraphs to blame nearly everything on Israel, but I knew the ending before I got there. No suspense! And your attempt to label Hamas's attacks by something romantic is like the Trumpists substituting J6 for January 6, as if we are going to forget what really went down. 020
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 10/12/2024Thanks. Twitter did serve this purpose a long time ago, but no more. Still, I'd add some more conservative news outlets to this list. Some of these (like Truthout) are nutty and as biased Fox News, just in the other direction. 010
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 10/12/2024So the Syrian civil war had nothing to do with pro-democracy protests being met with force by Assad, Russia, and Hezbollah/Iran including killing hundreds of thousands and gassing their own people? Who would have known? 020
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 09/12/2024You should watch Troppo. Not quite the scene, but some similarites. 010
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Nonsense. They moved into a demilitarized zone which may make sense until they figure out who is in charge and whether the agreement will continue to be honored. 010
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Ridiculous moral equivalence. You can argue with how Israel is conducting its war against Hamas, but that war was provoked by a violent attack on its civilians. No one provoked the synagogue attack, except in the eyes of those who find Jewish existence a provocation. 030
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Are these folks who have taken time out from cheering Hamas killings? 010
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 06/12/2024Why "but"? Just condemn violence period. I bet you condemn violence per se when it's perpetrated against those you support. 010

David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 05/12/2024You mean Oct 7 was intended to encourage Israel to "reform?" In what universe? 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Completely agree. And discouraging that @bsky.app can be as appalling as X in this regard -- just cheering different deaths. 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 05/12/2024I think most of us actually have the capacity to separate these things. 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 05/12/2024I don't think that's really the tradeoff. I can believe people are on here saying "yeah, not so terrible." 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 03/12/2024I love completely unbalanced histories being wielded as if to support what are purely ideological positions. 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Agreed, but you can still do the right thing, especially after promising to. 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 30/11/2024This is your causal explanation? You're not a serious journalist, just a rabid propagandist. 000
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 30/11/2024But surely the Democrats have to do more to engage these voters. They're disengaged for a reason. 010
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 30/11/2024One of my colleagues used to argue that gerrymandering is very hard to define, because in a state with no gerrymandering but a 51-49 split, every district should have the same 51-49 split. Thoughts? Is there an accepted definition/measure? 000

David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 24/11/2024I definitely agree on hosting divergent views, and that's a lot easier. But universities have to enforce students not shutting down speakers. 210
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 23/11/2024Why assume not? And isn't the unwillingness to engage with and hire them a reflection of the problem you identify? 100
David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 23/11/2024I think that's a ridiculous point of view. How can intellectual diversity in universities not be a good thing, even more so in fields where facts can't settle issues? 200

David Neumark @neumarkecon.bsky.social · 15/11/2024And the crowd that thought Trump would somehow be better for the Palestinians now gets an Evangelical Christian ambassador who believes they aren't a real people and West Bank settlements are just communities. 000
